Adoption Disruption

Adoption disruption refers to a situation where an adoption process is halted before it is finalized or after placement but before legal completion. This can happen due to various reasons, such as challenges in the relationship between the adoptive family and the child, behavioral issues, or failure to meet the needs of the child. It can be distressing for everyone involved, particularly for the child, as it affects their sense of stability and belonging. Addressing the underlying issues early on can help prevent disruption and support successful, lasting adoption outcomes.
